INFINITI’S NEW TWIN-TURBO V6 EARNS SPOT ON WARDS ’10 BEST ENGINES’ LIST

WardsAuto has released their latest “Best” list for the newest model year: “10 Best Engines for 2017.” Comprised of some of the most powerful and efficient powertrains on the market, the new list is a who’s-who of automotive power, and, to no one’s surprise, features INFINITI’s all-new 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 engine.

“INFINITI customers have a passion for driving and offering the new 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 engine helps make sure we meet their high expectations,” said Roland Krueger, president, INFINITI Motor Company, Ltd. “INFINITI is honored to be named to this prestigious list of the most technically significant powertrains in the world by the experts at WardsAuto. We are on track for record global sales in 2016 and the exceptional engineering and performance of our engines have certainly played an important role in this success.”

This latest powerplant from the luxury automaker continues this innovative trend by adopting features like a new direct-injection gasoline fueling system, as well as low mechanical friction and lightweight aluminum construction that helps make the engine very responsive.

According to a press release, the new engine is “the cleanest and most fuel-efficient engine of its type that INFINITI has ever offered,” providing a nearly 7 percent increase in fuel economy when compared to its predecessor.

We are very excited to see INFINITI once again honored as a leader in the automotive industry. The new optional twin-turbo V6 can be found under the hood of the 2017 INFINITI Q50, so stop by INFINITI on Camelback today to take the sedan for a test drive!
